Hey, it's a positive to me. I'm sure there's some nights we could make a high school teams guards look like All Stars.

That's because Sota don't have an elite point, our guards got a reprieve tonight.

You know we have good Kobe and bad Kobe................last couple of games has been bad Kobe, you know him the stubborn one. Anyway Al was bothered by Drew's length for the most part.

I doubt Fisher will outscore him because Randy has had some decent games lately. he finally seems to get the player we want him to be. but I agree with you. he's not THAT good as the other one said...


derek only scored 6 pts :(

what did foye get? :P

I was surprised to see Kobe shoot that poorly...I thought he was shooting fairly well, he hit a couple shots in the fourth when we needed him...but then he must have missed his next 4 shots or something. He was trying to stick a fork in the wolves, but he kept missing. He certainly didn't shoot us out of this game, but he was fumbling with the dagger tonight.

pau was very good tonight, had a great all around game.

We just have trouble putting teams away. Whether it's the reserves, poor shooting from our perimeter guys, big guys not rebounding or asserting themselves...

while everything seem to click at the beginning of the season, we're simply not firing on all cylinders anymore.

I'm not happy with the shot selection and decisions of ALL our perimeter guys. From Kobe and Ariza to Farmar and Fish, I just don't like where they're getting their shots off.

Except maybe Vujacic.

He started off as the quickest trigger in the west, but now he's become much more disciplined.

Last thing...I'm not certain Bynum is 100%. It's already two months into the season, and I haven't seen that energy and juice that he's had last year. He's averaging fewer rebounds and blocks this year...I just haven't seen that pep in his step. He doesn't get up off the floor as quickly. Hm. I hope he's not playing through anything. We need him healthy when it counts most.

I hope he isn't injured, but Phil doesn't believe in him yet for good reason. (I would hope)


I'm absolutely thrilled that Radman's minutes are being cut. (nothing personal)

I'll set it off after the New Year.

This team's core is pretty evident, we can build on this.


Oh, and if they can't play with us... ship they ass out.

I'm looking forward to playing good teams again. We're just not getting up for the weaker opponents, which is pretty much all that we've played over the past few weeks. Fortunately 5 of the 7 remaining games this month are against teams with winning records, so I think we'll see the team playing better basketball.

^ Miami-Orlando at the end of the week will be interesting. Can we keep Wade under 40, and how does Andrew matchup up with Howard on the end of a back-to-back? Sweep that and I'll forgive most of the loafing we've seen for the past three weeks.
